🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

hopefully a bit more entertaining than the last, Ollie Lawrence v Cameron Redpath at 12, Farrell v the returning Finn Russell, it's at Twickers and haven't won here since the year I got my first school tie for comprehensive and my great grandma was still swilling two Mackeson's a day, but there's no crowd, maybe the home field advantage is a thing of the past this year.

The Calcutta Cup is 150 years old this weekend, bring it home !

We are kicked off in Twickenham, let's see 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Eddie Jones' team have a religious requirement to come out guns blazing and get the first score. Lovely to see get the first points, although so far it's Scotland v Maro Itoje

England have coughed up eight penalties in 22 minutes, three from Itoje. The scoreline doesn't show Scotland capitalising though. Blue needs to take these points before the England bench gets thrown on after the half.

Edit, ninth penalty awarded as I write this, Vunipola off for 10.

jaz :twt: :wales_flag:

When you're playing England and you have 75% possession, 7 or 8 visits to the 22, they're a man down and the best you can do is finish the half with a two point lead, it really hits home that when you have a chance for three points, you take the three points.

Well it's fair to say I stopped packing the house up 30 minutes ago... this is fantastic contest, some very conservative, cautious substitutions taking place, whoever wins it will be well-earned for sure.

@jaz I'll take that win any day. Especially after waiting since 1983.
